I also love this photo so freaking much! Thank you @graphicmedicine.bsky.social for coming on as a programming partner for Libraries & Education Day - and creating such magic during #TCAF2025 General Programming. I can’t wait for ‘Drawing Together: The TCAF Edition 2026’!
Had a great #tcaf2025 🌱 Tabled with my stuff for the first time in person and spoke with a lot of people about art and life 🖤 Thank you to all the @torontocomics.bsky.social volunteers and organizers! My heart is full and I'm so so tired on my way home.

Last one from #TCAF2025. This was me on Friday, before it all happened. Peace to the world, for real.
#TCAF2025 was big, sweaty, chaotic, creative, nerdy, heartwarming and glorious. So many challenges, so many successes to celebrate. I’m genuinely so grateful for the comics community, for everyone who went along with us through this madcap ride. All I can say is: More comics and #dnd5e at #TCAF2026!
Now that we’ve all recovered from the #TCAF2025 weekend (and the afterparty), we want to see your comic hauls!
What are you reading? Who’d ya meet? Tag us and the creators so we can all keep making comics friends post-fest.
🍁TCAF 2025 was a success!!
This was my first TCAF and I’m so grateful to have been accepted :3
And thank you to the TCAF team for handling everything so well— especially with the flood! You guys are rockstars!!★
@torontocomics.bsky.social #tcaf #tcaf2025
A collection of zine books by various vendors, such as Joan Chung art, Seneca Illustration, Fell Hound, Morgan Sea, Sam Noir, And Danny Gorny
A collection of prints. One is of knockout from transformers prime, another is of Starscream, thundercracker, and skywarp from the transformers series; one is an undertale poster, one is fanart for rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles, and one is a small print of an inkling and octoling from Splatoon.
A collection of stickers from various artists. One is starscream looking pitiful on the floor with spilled food, with the word 'failscream' over him. Above is a yaoi sticker in the design of the ford car logo, and above that is transformers one megatron pointing his gun. Beside are three copies of a sticker labelled "try HRT". Next to them is a pinata and witch sticker from MTM college. Beneath those two, four tiny stickers of the rise of the tmnt turtles (left to right: Raph, Donnie, Mikey, and Leo). Below them, a sticker of a duck named pato with big, cute eyes and a tiny bow on its head. Finally, next to that is a sticker that says "there's no such thing as a straight mecha pilot".
My #tcaf2025 haul!! Thank you @torontocomics.bsky.social for another awesome year of celebrating comics!! I will be tagging everyone who I exchanged with in the comments below.
#torontocomics
Thanks Everyone and thank you @torontocomics.bsky.social! It was great to meet or catch up with so many of you. This was possibly the best comics show I've ever been to! What a privilege! #tcaf2025
